Greetings, Kathy! I'm glad you got in. It seems that people have to give

their name as well as their email in order to not be automatically

disqualified. This is a pleasant group of women. I hear that there are

over 70 subscribers but I'm sure I haven't met all 70 yet.

Ellen welcome to the group. I understand what you mean about your husband

working all the time. My husband is in the navy. Everyday him and is boss do

all the work while everyone else in the division slacks off and goes home

early. On top of working about 10 hrs a day he has duty every 5 days which

means he does get to coome home until he is done the next day. By then he is

exshausted and sleeps the rest of the evening. It sucks. Sorry I had to get

that off my chest.

Welcome Ellen:

I also can't help with your diliemna. I feed Jannie (16 weeks today) on

demand and she just eats when she is hungry. Lately she has been

cluster feeding in the pm. Oh well.

I really like this loop. I have been a member for about three or 4

weeks. It is great.

Hugs

Kristi

Welcome Ellen!

I'm Dana, SAHM to Philip, born 9/17/97. I'm not sure what to tell you about

getting him to eat longer as Philip has always been fed on demand and does the

same thing! : ) He knows he can eat whenever he wants so he " snacks " a lot!

Phil, my dh and I also practice attachment parenting. We love it!

You'll love this list. It has many wonderful moms!

My son and I had a great nursing relationship until 2 weeks ago when he

went on a 5 day nursing strike. He would nurse while he was sleeping but

screamed when presented with the breast when he was awake. I ended up

pumping bottles and feeding him that way (after trying spoon feeding and a

to nurse less " per sitting " although he still is hungry every two hours. I

would love it if he would eat larger meals again, but am unsure how or even

if I should try to alter his feeding habits.

Also, my husband and I are attachment parents (co-sleeping, babywearing)and

really enjoy all it's elements.

Boy, oh, boy, can I relate. My df works 80+ hours a week. I saw him a

total of 3 hours in 5 days. You're right. It sucks.

Welcome Wendi. I am sorry to hear that you are so frustrated nursing. I

heard that if you try to pump while your baby sleeps then you can increase

your milk supply. I can't help you with the teeth thing, my son hasn't got

any yet, but they are coming in. I am a stay at home mom too, although it is

driving me insane. I don't know anyone here, my husband is in the navy, and I

have one friend here, who is always working. I there is a lot of things to do

around here, but we don't have the money to do them, so my days are spent

sitting in our apartment all day. I won't have it any other way though, I

can't stand to leave my son for 5 minutes, so working is out of the question.

I am just so bored.

I have signed up for a lot for so many of those survey and focus groups

programs. I haven't heard from Cyberdialogue yet, but Brand Instutitue should

be sending me a couple checks here soon. My husband and I have done some

mystery shopping, but we haven't gotten any checks yet, but they should be

coming soon. Although the money will help, money is still tight. My husband

is taking a test in May and if he does extremely good he will be 2nd class,

which means some more money. I am praying he gets it.

<< ,

I get lonely too. My dh works 40 to 50+ hours a week. But atleast he's

here and not out of state.(navy)

But I'm a high needs person. lol.

I'm grateful to the internet for both of us.

Heres a way to make alittle $$ on the internet. www.cyberdialogue.com I've

gotten $30 from them so far and am in the process of making more.

Thanks for the welcome. I appreciate it. I have to admit that I hate pumping.

20-30min for about an ounce. It's very frustrating. About your situation. I

can relate to that. I was very bored being home with my daughter. I think it

is the transition of getting used to having a more abstract day. Not having

tangible results is hard. It definitely gets better. How old is your baby?

Money can be a hindrance but don't let it stop you from meeting people.
